Recreation Stewardship Panel

In May 2002, the Minister of Water, Land and Air Protection appointed an expert panel to make recommendations on a new management and funding model for fish, wildlife and park recreation.

The Recreation Stewardship Panel included Bruce Strachan as the chair of the panel, and David Narver, Bob Peart, Aidan Vining, Chief Harry Nyce and Bob Dalziel. Members were chosen for their experience and expertise in environmental stewardship, recreation management and financial management.

The panel's initial work included a review of available research and an evaluation of other jurisdictions' approaches to managing and funding fish, wildlife and parks. As well, the panel consulted First Nations and province-wide organizations. The panel prepared a draft report on September 15th that was broadly available for public review. The panel received 675 submissions in response to that report. On November 29th, the panel submitted their final report to the Minister.
